Week 8 (21-24 March)

Kia ora and welcome to week 8, a shorter week this week due to Good Friday being a holiday.

Easter
A reminder that next Week Easter Monday and Tuesday are both school holidays and the school will be closed.

Swimming
Our classroom swimming is now finished (typical now the weather has warmed up again!!)
We will resume swimming in Term 4.

Cross Country & Sausage Sizzle
Cross Country day is Wednesday down at St James Park. Feel free to pop down and watch the children race and enjoy a picnic lunch with us. For those wishing to order a sausage sizzle, these must be pre ordered on Tuesday and you are welcome to order extras for the rest of the family if you wish. Thanks to our hard working PTA for organising the sausage sizzle on our behalf.

Classroom Release
On Tuesday Room 19 will have Art with Mrs McHaffie and Room 18 will have PE with Mr Lukes from 11-12.30.

Reading
This week due to cross country, classroom release and the shorter week, the children will have a reading book on Monday and a poem on the other days. Feel free to re-read other poems from previous week - maybe each pick a favourite to read. Remember to use lots of expression and to 'read it like a poem'. Children will need to remember to bring their poetry folder to school each day so please have a hunt at home for them.

Library
We have booked an additional library time for Thursday this week due to Good Friday.
